BtA: Mefistofele Release!

The BtA Team is proud to release this small 2 mission demo. Consider it more like a prequel to BtA: Slaves of Chaos. In Mefistofele, you'll fly with local criminals and smugglers as they seek to make a simple profit, but they might have gotten in over their heads this time.

You might also want to read these and/or our pages on the Wiki.

Feel free to join #bta on IRC for discussion/support.

All files also mirrored on freespacemods.net as a single download.

Optional:

If you have a slower machine, or you experience lagging with the mainhall menu, download this pack and unzip it to your 'games/freespace2' folder. It will place a fourth VP in you 'games/freespace2/BtA Demo' folder.

BTA_DEMO_00LowEnd: MediaFire | MjnServ
7z: 192a045e90479e7570bdd647eae6f183
VP: e500623ed6ee6e4b6f5d943bf4023e18

To Play:

Select the mod 'BtA Demo' with your launcher (I personally love to use wxLauncher!) and make sure you are running 3.6.14 RC6 or greater.

Known Issues:


* Some HUD gauges don't change color properly. This is caused by a bug that has been fixed post 3.6.14 RC6.
* It's possible that checkpoints won't work on operating systems other than Windows. This is because our checkpoint system saves data to a file in the mod folder instead of FRED variables. We have not had any Mac or Linux testers. We would love to hear feedback on this.

Also I brought a lighter...
